Ugoy

UGOY

15”
x 20”

Oil
and Acrylic on Canvas

A
Private collection of Mr. Denver Trinidad

It
was an experimental painting I did some time ago. I wanted something different
from what I usually do so I decided to put a mask on an empty canvas before
painting the piece. I just had to go with my instinct It took me months to
paint something on the canvas because I really don’t know what to do with it.

Finally
“Ugoy” came through and I was happy to share the piece. It can be considered a
bit compelling and sometimes surreal. This represents serenity a midst the
piercing eyes of the society. You keep silent, close your eyes, focus and smile
with fierceness as you let them criticize and envy you.
